Snmp Configuration; Raid Manager Command Devices; Installation Roadmap - HP XP20000/XP24000 Configuration Manual

SNMP configuration

The XP family of disk arrays and the SVS 200 support standard SNMP for remotely managing arrays.
The SNMP agent on the SVP performs error-reporting operations requested by the SNMP manager.
SNMP properties are usually set from the SVP but they can also be set remotely using P9000 or XP
Command View Advanced Edition Software or XP Remote Web Console. For specific procedures,
see the applicable user guide.

RAID Manager command devices

HP StorageWorks P9000 RAID Manager Software manages HP StorageWorks XP Business Copy
Software or HP StorageWorks XP Continuous Access Software operations from a host server. To use
RAID Manager, you must designate at least one LDEV as a command device. This can be done with
P9000 or XP Command View Advanced Edition Software or Remote Web Console. For information
about how to designate a command device, see the applicable user guide.
Creating scripts to configure all devices at once may save you considerable time.
